How Double Gameweek 19 fixture changes have affected my FPL chip and transfer strategies

Like most Fantasy Premier League managers, I am finding it very hard to plan for Double Gameweek 19.

In light of Thursday’s updated fixture list, here is my latest plan for transfers and chip strategies ahead of Saturday’s deadline.

But, you could not have caught me in worse spirits about the way this season is going. Oh, Raz, what have you done to me. 

I know it really shouldn’t matter with everything going on, but Raheem Sterling’s (£11.4m) penalty miss has to go up there with one of my worst ever moments in FPL. 

My Free Hit team was built around him being my key differential, and not content with a spot on the bench until the 82nd minute, Sterling had to go and make things even worse.

Using the brilliant “what if” machine over at LiveFPL.net, I worked out that if Sterling had scored, I would have been catapulted into the top million ahead of my Arsenal contingent facing Crystal Palace.

Even if Kevin De Bruyne (£11.8m) had shaken off his fatigue and scored, I’d have still gone up a few hundred thousand places. If ever a moment summed up my season, it happened last night.

With the pain of the miss still fresh in my mind, I now have to turn my attention to planning for the upcoming Gameweeks. We have never known anything like it. Double Gameweeks have dropped off the table, with both Leeds and Southampton now only having one game. There go four players that I had in place ready for Double Gameweek 19.

Aston Villa v Everton is off now too. So, there goes Dominic Calvert Lewin (£7.7m). Dean Smith’s men have earned a fixture back though, hosting Newcastle at the back-end of the Gameweek, although we still don’t know which of their plays have been dealing with coronavirus (COVID-19). And let’s not forget that top target Jack Grealish (£7.7m) is on four yellow cards. Another one against Manchester City and he would miss the second Double Gameweek 19 fixture.

Let’s add to that problem. Bruno Fernandes (£11.3m) is also one booking away from a ban and faces what is likely to be a fiery encounter against Liverpool to come, before playing Fulham. Mohamed Salah (£12.5m) is off form. Manchester City are proving rock solid in defence but a bit of a lottery in trying to work out how many goals they will score, even against so-called ‘inferior’ opposition. Are they back, or were good performances against Newcastle and Chelsea just the result of playing teams in poor form?

I am finding it very hard this season and I know I’m not the only one. It feels almost impossible to plan for things when so much is in flux. But, we must try. I’m not going to give up hope, but I am looking at this season through the lens of what it is. No matter what rank I end up with, I will know what went on. I am allowing myself this season as a freebie, whatever happens.

I think I want to have a bit of fun at this stage. I want to give my squad a bit of a freshening up once Double Gameweek 19 is out of the way. I am interested in Percy Tau (£5.5m), mostly due to my Brighton bias, but also because he presents an intriguing cheap option as a potentially out-of-position option. 

Let’s face it, with competition such as Neal Maupay (£6.1m) it’s hard to imagine Tau won’t feature – and his most natural position is as an attacking midfielder. I expect to see him cementing a regular spot in the team going forward, given our lack of real goal threat over the last few months.

Barring any drastic news from the West Ham camp, I am going to finally make a move for Michael Antonio (£6.2m). West Ham have the best Double Gameweek schedule of the lot, hosting Burnley and West Bromwich Albion. 

The reason why I am so keen is because the Hammers have sold Sebastien Haller (£, his only direct competition, to Ajax. While I don’t expect a full 180-minute outing in Double Gameweek 19 for Antonio, it looks like he has returned from injury at a good time, and got minutes in the FA Cup. With Sterling’s penalty miss making one of my low points of FPL, Antonio’s four goals against Norwich was certainly my high point. If he can get close to replicating this then I’ll be a happy man again.

Speaking of West Ham, this seems a great time to invest in their defence. I know a lot of people have got Vladimir Coufal (£4.7m) and he seems a great option for the double – but a double up with Aaron Creswell (£5.4m) could be gold. I’d back West Ham for at least one clean sheet and Creswell has already registered 6 assists in the league.  No defender has got more. Historically, defenders are often great picks in Double Gameweeks with the likes of Branislav Ivanovic, Aymeric Laporte and Trent Alexander-Arnold (£7.2m) all registering huge returns in seasons gone by. It wouldn’t surprise me to see a West Ham defender as the top-scoring player for the Gameweek.

Another strong consideration for me is to double-up with Manchester City defenders. John Stones (£5.0) has finally come into my reckoning due to the consistency of strong performances from himself and the rest of the backline. 

At this point, I don’t think the extra £0.8m is worth it for fellow centre back Ruben Dias (£5.8m) and I think not only does Stones keep his place, but he matches the Portuguese internationals points from now until the end of the season. 

That said, I am very glad to have moved for João Cancelo (£5.8m). I am completely and utterly convinced that this man is going to hit a double-digit return soon. Could it be this week? Is he actually an outside captaincy option with other big-hitting players flattering to deceive?

One player who I think I will be keeping is Son Heung-min (£9.8m). His 62.5% ownership means that I’m not getting much benefit from his returns, but it feels amiss to be selling him before a run of games that includes Brighton, West Brom and Sheffield United. 

I had earmarked a swap for him to De Bruyne, but with Pep Guardiola citing fatigue as the reason he didn’t take Manchester City’s penalty – combined with the fact that his side are still playing without a recognised striker AND that he only has one goal from open play this season, decimating my team and taking out the number one point scorer in the game just feels a bit of a luxury transfer when there are other moves I could be making to try and climb the rankings.

So, with fixture rescheduling putting any plans I had for a Bench Boost on hold, I am considering which chip I should use if any. With Fernandes on four yellow cards, I don’t feel confident enough captaining him this week – which makes Salah the obvious choice. 

The trouble is, I’m just not sure how the Manchester United game is going to pan out. I think it might be a very cagey affair. While I think Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s men have the firepower to put a dent in Liverpool’s title charge, a point would suit them. 

Do I really think Liverpool’s incredible home record of 53 wins and 11 draws in the last 64 games will come to an end against United? I’m just not convinced. At this point, I am strongly considering not using a chip at all and saving them for a bit later in the season. There is the guarantee of further Double gameweeks, and maybe a player will emerge as a stronger Triple Captain option on paper then.

Whatever you decide to do this week, good luck! Double Gameweeks are always something to get excited about. My advice is don’t be afraid to chuck a few hits to bring in some more players and make the most of it.

    Holding and Watkins or Firmino out for Cancelo or Dias and Antonio ?

  2. JaydenLFC87
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Who would rather people have for the double too

    A) Soucek

    B) Foden

    1. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Foden.

    2. Gudjohnsen
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      In hindsight probably Foden but that means you can't double up in City defence.

    3. marcos11
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      B, higher ceiling imo

  3. southernrocker1
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    3 years, 2 months ago

    Help please!

    Stones or Cancelo? (have Dias)

    I've heard a few people say Cancelo is now a bit more of a risk of rotation? Money not an issue. Cheers

    1. Camzy
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 13 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      If I could buy one player that I don't own on my team for this week it would be Cancelo.

    2. Ëð
      • 8 Years

      Cancelo. Higher ceiling

      Did u take a hit for this?

      1. aapoman
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Only a -4

        1. estheblessed
          • 9 Years

          That's brilliant then

    3. WVA
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Are you playing a chip? My team is quite similar and i'm not,

      Martinez
      Cancelo Coufal Dallas
      Salah KDB Bruno Son Grealish
      Antonio Bamford
      Johnstone Holding KWP Brewster

      1. aapoman
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        No chips played, only a -4. Saved FH last week and still got 38 points.

        1. WVA
          • 7 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          My FH paid off last week with 63 points so was well worth it, team without it would have been a disaster.

          Holding
          KDB Bruno Son
          DCL Brewster

    4. Atimis
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Wish I could afford Watkins, Adams was the worst buy ever

      1. DandyDon
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        got me a few assists etc a few weeks back. At least Ings is out so you'll know he starts his one game. Watkins gave me the run around big time, sold twice already this season getting nothing but a missed pen, i'll be doing adams to Antonio for a -4.

  7. Miguel Sanchez
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Bench one:

    A) Son (shu)
    B) Soucek (BUR, WBA)
    C) Wilson (ars, avl)

    1. aapoman
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Wilson

    2. Ëð
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      C just

    3. WVA
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      C

  8. Ëð
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Already on a -8. Is it worth another hit to do Adams -> Watkins and play him instead of Bamford?

    1. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      No - doubt Watkins scores vs City

      1. Ëð
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Thank you!

    2. aapoman
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I wouldn't

    3. DandyDon
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      don't fancy Antonio? I only got a missed pen and no goals from Watkins after owning him TWICE this season so I won't be bringing him in again!

      1. Ëð
        • 8 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        I'm not sure he's back at 100% yet. Otherwise I'd be very interested

  9. Zlatan F.C
    • 3 Years

    would appreciate some feedback. What would you do with this team? 1FT and 1.8m in the bank

    Playing my freehit last GW jumped me 250k places. Well worth it id say.

    Now to play my wildcard this week or not ?!?

    1. Ëð
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Depends how well set up for the DGW you are.

      1. estheblessed
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Not as well as I should be. I've got 6 GGW players

    2. aapoman
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Surely you want to save the WC if you already FH. Otherwise makes it really hard to navigate the rest of the season with the unexpected COVID stuff and dgw26 and bgw29

      1. estheblessed
        • 9 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Yea true, I may end up taking a few hits then

    3. DandyDon
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I did consider WC as will improve my team beyond this week as well and I owned no city before start of game week however just dealing with it with hits and will have a weak bench (but shouldn't need that as nearly all have two fixtures). A hit on a double gameweek isn't such a big deal as always for me. leeds defender (can see brighton winning that) to a city defender for example with likely two CS got to be worth -4. And like I say sets my team up for their future good fixtures.

  11. WVA
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Who to captain?

    A. KDB (Can't finish and too tired to take a penalty)
    B. Bruno (On four YC'S)
    C. Salah (Has had the most rest and gets an extra days rest between games during the DGW)

    1. Tinkermania
      • 4 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      C

    2. Volley127
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 11 Years

      Sounds like you’ve made your mind up...

    3. Miguel Sanchez
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Have really loaded the question here

      A for me

    4. estheblessed
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Its a tough one. I think KDB because of his fixtures.

    5. OptimusBlack
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      C

    6. 2999 - Lady of Legend

      Great team. Just curious why TC Salah over KDB?

      1. IRBOX ⚽
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Salah.. two matches at Anfield with ample rest. It’s a no brainer

        1. aapoman
          • 10 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          Hmmm true. I'm also considering using the TC. Just torn between those two

        2. Camzy
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          If an Everton fan is gonna do it, it must be true...

          I'm also on Salah (c) this week.

        3. DandyDon
          • 5 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          so was bringing him in for last three like I did. haha

  14. vincentwsho
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member

    Who to put as first bench player, Saka (NEW) or Dallas (BHA)??

    Currently starting 2 SGW players Kane and Bamford and other 9 DGW

    1. DandyDon
      • 5 Years

      Any help

    2. Van der Faart
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Trying to get both in myself but proving difficult, unless I go without Salah or Bruno. Leaning toward Vardy

      1. OptimusBlack
        • 10 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Yes Same here dude am getting Vardy

    3. Magic Zico
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member

      If not captaining and for either Son or Kane, no

    4. MagicMessi

      Very tough I'd say both if u BB

  16. The Red Devil

    Would you do bednarek to coufal for a hit?

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      In a DGW situation and WHU have decent fixtures, yes I would take the hit

    2. aapoman
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I would

  17. Willmissudimitrypayet
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Got 15 DGW'ers and looking to bench boost. 1FT and 0.6 ITB, anything to do to improve the squad or save transfer? For example Antonio in for Wood?

    Pope Martinez
    Robbo Cancelo Stones Chilwell Coufal
    Rashford Bruno KDB(C) Grealish Soucek
    Wood Watkins Wilson

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I think I would take that gamble Wood to Antonio. The risk is worth it.

      1. Volley127
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 11 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Agreed. And definitely Bb of course

    2. IRBOX ⚽
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Antonio is still not fit and no way he plays more than 90mins with only 2 days between fixtures. Hold fire

      1. Tonyawesome69
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        I can't see Wood getting more than 4 points in those two games. Surely Antonio on a FT is worth the gamble

      2. Willmissudimitrypayet
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Was an encouraging sign that he played 90 in the cup though. Do they have anybody else to play there now that Haller is gone?

        1. FPL_Crisis
          • Fantasy Football Scout Member
          • 13 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          Maybe Lanzini false 9 if Antonio can’t go twice

          1. Willmissudimitrypayet
            • Fantasy Football Scout Member
            • 7 Years
            3 years, 2 months ago

            Makes sense. Antonio did look rusty in the cup, but he does have some goals in him. Would you make the move?

            1. FPL_Crisis
              • Fantasy Football Scout Member
              • 13 Years
              3 years, 2 months ago

              Look im really tempted myself swapping DCL
              However I could play Bamford and Rodrigo and bench DCL meaning skipping Antonio.
              Think I’d want Bamford over Wood even though he has a double

              1. Willmissudimitrypayet
                • Fantasy Football Scout Member
                • 7 Years
                3 years, 2 months ago

                Hehe maybe. I took out Bamford for Wood last gw thinking he would get 3 vs 1 games over these 2 gw's. Plan was then to do Wilson to Antonio but with Wilson having a double now that changed things. Feels like a lot of transfers to go from Bamford to Wood to Antonio and back to Bamford again hehe..

    3. aapoman
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Looks lovely. I would take the risk and get Antonio but being able to save the FT this week is also brilliant.

      1. Willmissudimitrypayet
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Yeah, those 2 FT could be well needed after this week to get in the likes of Bamford and Salah and stuff again.

      2. Willmissudimitrypayet
        • Fantasy Football Scout Member
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Think Antonio will outscore Wood by 4 points?

    4. Now I'm Panicking
      • 9 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Wood to Antonio for sure. Wood has Joelinton-level returns this year and two shite fixtures.

    Kdb essential?

    1. Tonyawesome69
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      No-one is essential but he is high on my list as a player that should be in most teams

      Worth a wc?

      1. Tonyawesome69
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        No I wouldn't use my 2nd WC in this GW (obviously it is team dependent). Save it for the next big DGW

    TAA, Son & DCL > Dias, KDB & Antonio (-8)?

    1. Van der Faart

      • 12 Years

      Good moves

    Guys, any help appreciated:

    Johnstone
    TAA Robbo Dias Coufal
    Salah Bruno Son* Lookman
    Wood Bamford*

    Meslier* Adams* Raphinha* Balbuena**

    I think i'll commit to BB, which option would be better:

    A) Adams + Balbuena -> Antonio + Dawson (-4)
    BB Meslier Lookman Raphinha Bamford

    B) Balbuena + Adams + Raphinha -> Antonio + Soucek + Stones (-8)
    BB Meslier Son Lookman Bamford

    C) Balbuena + Adams + Raphinha -> Watkins + Soucek + James (-8) .
    BB Meslier Son Lookman Bamford

    Any other suggestion?

    1. Mreidfelt
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I decided on:

      Johnstone
      Stones, Dallas, Holding
      Bruyne, Salah, Fernandes, Gundogan, Soucek
      Kane, Vardy

      On wild card so tell me if I should change something...

    2. Meepers
      • 3 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I would do C but take out James and put in stones. Antonio is a rotation risk and may not play both of his games. Newcastle have looked dreadful in the past few games so I think Watkins can do some damage.

      1. ASOUSA12
        • 5 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        I'm not sure on Stones, the games will come thick and fast and i think he may miss one of those matches... The problem with Watkins, we don't know if he was affected by COVID or not, there will probably be not enough information till deadline.

  21. Meepers
    • 3 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    doing Salah to kdb and also taking out Taylor and possibly kwp aswell
    here are my two options cress well and holding for a -8 or stones and kwp for a -4. Which is better?

    1. Van der Faart
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Stones and Kwp

  22. Eleven Hag
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    G2G?

    Martinez
    Dias Cancelo Coufal
    KDB (c) Salah Bruno Grealish Soucek
    Vardy Wood
    - Tierney Brewster 3.9

    Can't decide whom to start between Wood and Tierney or if I should take a hit and replace them

    1. Ëð
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      G2G, I'd hold for now

      1. Eleven Hag
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Start wood or Tierney?

        1. Ëð
          • 8 Years
          3 years, 2 months ago

          Wood

    2. aapoman
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I'd definitely start Wood. Pretty much guaranteed 4 points and has higher ceiling this gw imo

  23. Slitherene
    • 6 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    G2G?

    Martinez ¦ Forster
    Cancelo Maguire Coufal
    KdB Bruno Rashford Soucek
    Jesus Wilson Vardy (c)
    ¦ Saka Lascelles Holding

    1. Ëð
      • 8 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Looks good, but Vardy captain definitely a gamble

      1. Slitherene
        • 6 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Thinking of TC him

  24. Ëð
    • 8 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Anything here worth a hit? Already on -8. Not planning on BB or TC.

    Johnstone
    Stones, Robertson, Coufal, Justin
    Salah, KDB (C), Bruno, Son, Soucek
    Bamford

    McCarthy, Dallas, Adams, Brewster

    1. aapoman
      • 10 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      It's good

  25. Van der Faart
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Small rank jumps are painful. With that in mind

    Bruno and Adams to Foden and Vardy (-4)? Could pay off, could be a disaster. Would leave me with this

    Martinez (McCarthy)
    Dias Cresswell James (Holding Taylor)
    Son Salah Foden Soucek (Riedwald)
    Vardy Kane Bamford

    Probably not popular to go without Bruno or KDB so could do Son to Foden, Adams to Vardy and Dias to Stones for -8 either.

  26. Toothless
    • Fantasy Football Scout Member
    • 10 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Anyone want to talk me out of Salah + DCL -> KDB + Vardy for a -8?

    Not just with the DGW in mind, I think I'll get the 8+ points back over the next 3 or 4 GWKs.

    1. Van der Faart
      • Fantasy Football Scout Member
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Considering similar moves. Those City fixtures are juicy

  27. Eh, just one more thing ...
    • 12 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Morning all ... could you advise who you think the best midfielder pick for maximum £6.6m is for this double game week?

    Midfield currently : KDB Sterling Bruno Soucek ????????

    1. Eh, just one more thing ...
      • 12 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Rest of team FYI ...
      Maguire Dias Coufal (Dallas Holden)
      Vardy Wilson (Bamford)
      Mendy (McCarthy)

  28. Sgt Frank Drebin
    • 7 Years
    3 years, 2 months ago

    Howm any minutes do you think Antonio will play during the DGW?

    1. Eleven Hag
      • 6 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      They haven't got another striker ?

      1. Sgt Frank Drebin
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        I don't know I'm not up to date. They've bought someone?

    2. WVA
      • 7 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      Hoping for 122 minutes

    3. DandyDon
      • 5 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      might buy someone but doubt he will be thrown in for 2nd fixture that soon. Thus I thnk Antonio gets majority of minutes

      1. Sgt Frank Drebin
        • 7 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Thanks for the opinion

  29. The Big Larsbowski

    What are the pros and cons with TC on KdB in gw19?

    1. McSauce
      • 14 Years
      3 years, 2 months ago

      I honestly think he was smashed in the last 15 mins of that Brighton game.

      I would suggest (C) him but not (TC)

      1. The Big Larsbowski
        • 4 Years
        3 years, 2 months ago

        Thanks! I agree. At one point he needs rest.

    Which one:
    a) Bench : Leno, Harrison, Gibbs*, Dawson* (BB, -4)
    b) Bench : Fabianski*, Harrison, Gibbs*, Lewis* (BB, no hits)
    c) Save BB, no hits
